ARGYNNIS IV. 



flavescentes." Now in his description of Call'qype, he says, " posticae subtus 

 cinereo-fuscae." This does not agree with the color of Juha as given, nor with 

 what Dr. Behr says of Coronis ("fusca"). But I have the type male of Jtiha, 

 sent me by Dr. Boisduval, and named and marked " type " in his own hand, and 

 this is not " flavescens," but the color of Behr's type. However, as I have said 

 above, the species varies from red-brown to yellow on under side. Callip'pe is 

 figured in Vol. I., But. N. A., and the differences between these species are really 

 great, though they belong to the same sub-group, which also includes Liliana 

 and Semiramis, both figured in the present Volume. 



The female figured in Vol. I., Plate 33, as A. JVevadensls is Coronis of a pale- 

 colored under-side variety. When that Plate was published, 1871, 1 followed the 

 instructions of Mr. Henry Edwards, who had taken what he supposed to be the 

 females of JVevadensis, at Virginia City. Later, 1878, Messrs. Mead and Mor- 

 rison collected in Nevada, and brought back numbers of both Nevadensis and 

 Coronis. The female of the former is always green. I concluded from the evi- 

 dence laid before me at that time that A. Meadii, figured in Vol. H., Plate 24, 

 must be an extreme variation of JVevadensis, in which the green is dark and 

 lustrous.
